There is also Bavarian Motors on Woodbine Ave, just north of John St. (near the Mandarin Restaurant)

I just called them. The guy I talked to was borderline rude. It was like he was upset he had to answer the phone. He said it shouldn't be a problem to bring it in, but he wouldn't make an appointment and couldn't guarantee they could look at the car. The whole experience was very off putting.

Sorry for calling and being a potential customer Bavarian Motors.

That's really odd. How old is this car you want checked out? I know someone else who you could contact, he is a BMW Master Tech and was the shop foreman at Open Road BMW in the past.

Hey Meatloaf,

I just called Steve at Bavarian Motors to ask what was going on. He said you wanted an appt. for 12:00 noon on Friday, which is when his employees all have lunch. (they stop for an hour each Friday) He said that he could not guarantee he could get you in at exactly the time you want and you may have to wait a little, as all the hoists could be in use. And he also said that you made an appt. for 11:30 and he was expecting you then, so it would have been nice if you called to cancel.

He probably does not need "potential" customers like you...

That's not exactly how it went.

Yes, I did suggest 12, he said that's when they take lunch. That's understandable, people have to eat.

I asked when they get back from lunch, he said 1. I suggested 1-1:30, he said he couldn't guarantee the time.

That's when I explained to him my situation (see first post).

11:30 was my final suggested time, he couldn't guarantee that either. That's when I agreed I would call again friday to see if they could fit me in.

But since they could not guarantee me a time, I fail to see how I'm supposed to cancel an arrangement that doesn't exist. This whole situation goes against the very definition of appointment.

But if he's saying that I have an appointment, then there has obviously been some miscommunication. I'll call tomorrow to cancel.

Now heres a twist , This morning I called Bavarian Mtrs and told them I had a problem with my exhaust , A very friendly lady said to come by at 1:30 . Now at the shop , I talked with Steve told him of my problem and with out any hestitation came out to my car crawled under and inspected the exhaust system which as it turned out was ok . Thumbs up for you Steve for taking the tyme from your busy shop to help.
